WILDLIFE PHOTOGRAPHER OF THE YEAR 2009 - WINNERS ANNOUNCED 22 AUGUST
AUGUST 24th, 2009
“So many of the photographs I’d seen of polar bears failed to show the power of the animals or any sense of the harshness of the polar environment.”
It was this assumption which led Miguel Lasa to take this amazing shot of a Polar Bear silhouetted in the Polar sunrise. The photo went on to win the Visitor Choice award at the 2008 Veolia Environnement Wildlife Photographer of the Year exhibition.
The competition, which has been running for 45 years, showcases the very best in international nature photography. This year’s winners will be announced on the website on 22nd October and will be available to view at the Natural History Museum in an exhibition opening on the 23rd.
